The GameDaily One-Minute Review

What Sonic Team attempts with Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity is commendable. Awful controls, however, ruin the experience. On more than one occasion, you'll find yourself flying off the track while dealing with overwhelming power-ups and questionable computer-controlled opposition. The gameplay is utterly haphazard, just like the first game. That's a shame, because it features an admirable upgrade system and spiffy level designs. Multiplayer's a mess as well. You simply can't keep up with anything once the action goes into split-screen mode. These Riders need a serious overhaul.
